Meet the Newest Friend In Our House

Please meet the newest edition to our family. PIG. Or you can call her Pig Pig.
The other day I was shopping in Kohl's with my mother. As we get to the check out she is with Diana and gives Diana this pig from those displays right next to the checkout counter. While it appeared Diana loved the furry stuffed pig I reminded them both of ALL the stuffed animals that we have at the house already. I actually think they could have their own half of a room. It didn't matter what I thought Grandma and Diana had no second thoughts about taking Pig Pig home.
Diana loves Pig. Everything she does she does with Pig. They play together, eat together, read together , dance together and even potty together. Tonight Pig Pig has Diana's underwear on. Dean never had just one thing he kept for a snugly thing. I tried for years. Finally at around 4 years old he found Jimmy the dog. When my husband got home from his deployment in 2006 we bought him Jimmy at a Hallmark in the Mall where we lived. Dean was 2 years old then and it took him 2 years to get attached to Jimmy. From then on out they were together forever. When Jimmy started to get old and got holes in him I wished then that I had bought a back up Jimmy and kept it close by. I never did find another Jimmy. You bet your bottom that I will be running not walking to Kohl's tomorrow to make sure I get a back up Pig Pig. I hate for her heart to be broken if something ever happens to Pig. I think all children should have a special something to comfort them.




Yummy Halloween



Today was craft day in the Cox house. This was a simple, messy, yummy fun,time consuming project for Deano and Mommy. Deano had fun decorating his very first Gingerbread Witches House. Im not sure where the candy went more . Was it on the house, or was it in his mouth? :O)
